Abstract

A guide sleeve for neck rests on vehicle seats adapted to slidingly accommodate a rod carrying a neck rest, the sleeve comprising an enlargement adjacent to the upper end thereof which extends transverse to the axis of the sleeve, a slider element slidingly guided within the enlargement and including a manually operable portion extending outwardly of the enlargement. A pin-shaped metallic locking element is positioned in the slider element adapted to co-operate with the rod on the side opposite to the portion whereby an axial displacement of the rod is prevented. Spring means effect on the slider element to bias the pin towards the rod, whereby the spring element is formed by a bent elongated spring portion of the pin-shaped locking element which is supported by the bottom of the enlargement.
